Front Patch Shelves

The Front Patching/Splicing Shelf (FIST-FPS) is the mechanical assembly for the fiber management system that provides the function of splicing and patching pigtails and connecting them in a rack environment. The front panel of the shelf is loaded with 4 twelve-connector adapter modules, allowing patching and cross-connection of pigtails without opening the shelf. All types of connector adapters can be pre-installed in the front panel. Bend controls on the chassis are provided to protect the inside rack pigtails. Behind the patch panel a tray tower including 6 splicing trays is mounted.

The front patching/splicing shelf, FOMS-FPS, is a multi-purpose mechanical shelf assembly for a fiber management system in a rack environment.

Its compact design and high-density capacity allow the FOMS-FPS to deliver carrier-class fiber management to central offices, POPs, FTTx, mobile systems and LANs.
